Description
The Mrs English Chardonnay comes from a hand harvested, single vineyard in the Jonkershoek Valley, Stellenbosch. Complex and rich on the palate yet retainign important freshness, this is impeccably balanced and a wine that will give drinking pleaseure for several years following the vintage.
The grapes were whole bunch crushed without prior destemming to ensure a prominent fruit character and well-rounded wine. After pressing, the juice settled in a stainless-steel tank for 48 hours at 12-14° Celsius before the clear juice was racked into French oak barrels. Each barrel was inocculated with a different yeast strain. A third of the wine was fermented with natural yeasts to ensure a softer wine with complexity. The barrels used for Mrs. English were composed of 40% new, 40% second fll, and 20% third fill. The wine was then sulphured and left to mature in barrels for 12 months, with bâttonage performed every week.

Chenin Blanc
The Carte d'Or Coteaux du Layon from Baumard has a very attractive honeyed nose, with lifted yellow fruits and more golden tropical elements such as mango, guava and pineapple. It has a particularly tropical character and a very fresh feel on the palate, with steely minerality and a zippy background acidity giving invigorating tartness to keep the wine luscious and buoyant. The rounded, approachable finish has good length.
